Wtf? So a religion that tells its believers its their duty to God to go out and strap bombs to themselves to rid the world of enemies of God is OK with you? So a religion that told its believers to go out and strap herbal practitioners and midwives and homosexuals to stakes and set fire to them is OK with you?

No, we don't allow violent religions to flourish unchecked by laws made to combat religious madness.

No you couldn't say that.

It's perfectly Ok though for an omnipotent omniscient god to conduct a human sacrifice to himself. cos someone pissed him off.

Schtupnagel ignorance again, Bull? Please go to your nearest Google or Wikipedia search engine and read about the Gnostic Christian religion and then stop your slander of Christians who are not believer's in Paul's doctrines and never were. You can address your bitches and moans about Pauline Christian doctrines to Pauline Christians but not to me. I'm a Celestial Torah Christian and none of your Bible complaints apply to my Christian beliefs.

ummmm instances of al queda are frowned upon by the general muslim population

Epsilon: There are so many stories where some brave hero decides to give their life to save the day, and because of their sacrifice, the good guys win, the survivors all cheer, and everybody lives happily ever after. But the hero... never gets to see that ending. They'll never know if their sacrifice actually made a difference. They'll never know if the day was really saved. In the end, they just have to have faith.

You mean Jesus? The situation is rendered far more complicated than you think based on the fact Jesus is actually part of god. So it's not really human sacrifice it's more a situation no human can really draw a parallel to due to the fact we have no experience we can compare it to. Much like the higher dimensions.

So god can be killed by hanging him on a stick, now that's what I call all powerful.

Not exactly killed. More a small chunk which had been separated from the main whole was returned to the whole.

How do you propose that should happen? The terrorist crimes committed are just that; terrorism, not religion. How do you control what others believe in your own country, let alone in foreign countries?

And since most of the references in this thread seem to involve mostly Muslim terrorism, did you mix up the term local church with local mosque?

I am speaking of dangerous religion in general, any religion can become dangerous when fundamentalism has a role to play.

I know. My question was how do you heavily restrict religion? The law concerning terrorism is already in place, and is a law enforced on everyone religious or not.
